Exchange/return diapers at Walmart?

We received a big box of Luvs diapers at my shower and I finally got around to trying them today. We've used Pampers and Huggies, so far I prefer Huggies but I received all 3 brands at my baby showers and wanted to compare all 3. So I got my LO all bathed and ready for bed with a Luvs on. As I was feeding him, I heard him pass gas and poop. All of a sudden his back is wet and there is an explosion of poo all over the back of his pj's! I had to strip him and re bathe him again. When I checked the diaper, there wasn't what I would consider an abnormal amount of poop, just his normal amount. I noticed that the diapers have no elastic in the back so there is no way to keep the diaper contents in the diaper.

Anyway, my husband said we should take the box back to Walmart and exchange them for another brand. But I would think we could not return an open box with one removed. Does anyone know their policy on diaper returns? We know they came from Walmart because the lady that gifted them works there.

I know there policy is diaper for diaper whether bought there or not. I exchanged mine, not opened however for a different size without a receipt with my first. I really wouldn't think they'd take an open box but maybe call and ask before hauling a box in there and being turned down. But def exchange unopened boxes for the brand you prefer!

I've returned other things opened before. I've also returned things opened and partially used (2 oz plastic cups) to Sam's Club (same company) with no problem. I would think you're fine. Especially just 1 missing.
